This was originally speedy-deleted as a CSD A7. DRV restored the article in light of new sources, given at the DRV. Still, weak delete given continued notability concerns, pending other opinions. Xoloz 16:20, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Week keep Keep (see below) on the basis of the titles of the publications given. I can not see how to document the additional publications claimed, in the absence of accessible indexes for Indian periodicals--I've asked the author of the article for assistance in this.DGG (talk) 21:22, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Fix or delete I'm sorry, I went through the DRV before looking at the article and there are a couple of things that trouble me. First, this article is STILL a copyvio of the usurpia article, unless usurpia is a Wikimirror. Second, blatant COI. The author of the article IS the subject.--Ispy1981 20:46, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, Yousurp is mirrorring this article. But as far as I can tell, they have not made it available downstream as GFDL licensed. So its they who are in violation. --soum ^talk 15:18, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment I just added 4 good references mentioned in DRV but not yet added to the article. Though they do not yet document everything, they seem quite sufficient to show his poisiton and importance. I changed from Weak Keep to Keep.DGG (talk) 03:14, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
